        osstatus = ATSFontGetName (ioArray[fntcount], kATSOptionFlagsDefault,

        if (fontName) f = [NSFont fontWithName:(NSString*)fontName size:24];
        if ( f != nil )
         {
            [myfonts addObject:f];

         }

        }

        NSNumber *contno=[NSNumber numberWithInt:container];

         [containerarr addObject:contno];         //containerarr array is
used during deactivation
    }
    return myfonts;
}

This is my font activation code
After activating fonts Use the fonts display in a text view using

[[previewLoader textStorage] setAttributedString:atstr];
previewLoader is textview & atstr is attributed string with font &
paragraph.

after displaying I changed selected font to be displayed then
Deactivation font of current font is done after that activated selected
font.

-(void) deactivatefont{

    int arrc;
    for (arrc=[containerarr count];arrc>0;arrc--) {
        int coun=arrc-1;
        ATSFontContainerRef mycont=[[containerarr objectAtIndex:coun]
intValue];

    printf("/////////%d////////\n",ATSFontDeactivate(mycont,NULL,kATSOptionFlagsDefault));

    }

    [containerarr removeAllObjects];
}
This is deactivation part
But I cant to deactivate the deactivation part is returns value -45
when failed
And when deactivation is succees it returns 0

With thanks and regards
Excuse my language
